Homemade dinner rolls don't get easier than these! Ready in an hour, they are light, fluffy, and the perfect accompaniment to soups, stews, and chilis.
Yield: 12 rolls
Ingredients
2-2¼ cups all purpose flour
1 envelope Fleischmann's RapidRise Yeast
2 tbsp sugar
½ tsp salt
½ cup milk
¼ cup water
2 tbsp butter
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together ¾ cup flour, undissolved yeast, sugar, and salt. In a medium pan over medium-high heat, warm the milk, water, and butter until they reach 120-130F. Pour the warm liquids into the flour mixture and beat for 2 minutes at medium speed with an electric mixer. Add in ¼ cup of flour and beat for 2 minutes at high speed. Stir in enough of the remaining flour so that a soft dough forms. Knead lightly on a floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 8-10 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest for 10 minutes.
Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces. Divide each of these into 3 equal pieces.
Grease a muffin tin and place 3 pieces of dough in each of the cups. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
Heat oven to 375. Bake for 20 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from the pan and serve warm.
